- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain off any excess grease.
- Layer the crescent rolls in the bottom of your prepared dish, pressing them gently to form a solid base.
- Spread the cooked sausage evenly over the crescent rolls.
- Pour the beaten eggs over the sausage layer, letting them settle into all the nooks and crannies.
- Top generously with shredded cheese, covering the entire surface.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
Notes
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze slices for up to 2 months. Reheat in the microwave in 30-second bursts or warm in the oven at 300°F for 10–15 minutes.
